The Great Bear Lake ice thickness and water quality observations under current and future climates (2022-2025)
Principal Investigator: Kheyrollah Pour, Homa
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2023 2022
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5677. This project aims to reconstruct trends in ice phenology using remotely-sensed and ground-based observations and collective memories of land-based and in-lake changes by communities living along the shoreline of Great Bear Lake (GBL) to characterize the interannual variability of ice formation in the lake and determi...

Principal Investigator: Baltzer, Jennifer L
Licensed Year(s): 2021 2019 2018
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.4983. The overall objective is to understand existing and potential impacts of climate change and resource development in the SahtĂș region on four key aspects: 1) the landscape, 2) vegetation, 3) water resources, and 4) aquatic ecosystems. Specifically, the team seek to understand: a) terrain instability due to permafrost t...


Active Layer Monitoring Network in the Mackenzie Valley
Principal Investigator: Nixon, Frederick M
Licensed Year(s): 2008 2007 2006 2005 2004 2003 2002 2001 2000 1999 1998 1997 1996 1995 1994 1993 1992 1991 1990
Summary: The active layer, overlying the permafrost layer, is the surface earth material that thaws and re-freezes each year. Active layer thickness and character can influence hunting, fishing, forestry, gardening, transportation and construction. Changes in the active layer can contribute to landslides which may damage structures, hamper transportation, affect water quality, and influence surface and sub...
